Should we mark the 1938 "election" as the previous election?

I believe that the 1938 "election" should be marked as the previous election in the infobox. The reasons are as follows:

The corresponding page for West Germany, 1949 West German federal election, linked there. This page is also linked from the 1938 election page.
Both East and West Germany succeeds Nazi Germany.

No, we shouldn't. The West German election article should probably have it removed as well. Cheers, Number 5 7 09:20, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

May I know the reason why? NasssaNser_talk 09:16, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Because they aren't comparable elections IMO. Number 5 7 11:35, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Just removed. In all honesty, previous elections in the Germany navbox should be removed before the founding of the current Germany, with the content merged/created into another navbox. ValenciaThunderbolt (talk) 12:21, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
